I've always wondered about that also, because Da Silva received good notices for his performance and is great in the film version. It's my understanding that he suffered a mild heart attack on the morning of the Opening, 3/16/69. I assume he was then out of the show for at least a few weeks. He missed the recording of the cast album on 3/23/69. The date of the award show was 4/20/69. I wonder if the Tony Nominators had a chance to see him in the show.
I really wish Sony would release the film soundtrack on CD so we can appreciate Da Silva's performance in the context of a recording. |
